Manchester United to battle Liverpool for Carlos Bacca?

Manchester United have reportedly joined Liverpool in the race to sign Sevilla striker Carlos Bacca.

Recent reports have suggested that Liverpool are keen to bring Bacca to Anfield after watching the Colombian play a key role in helping Sevilla win the Europa League for the second year in a row.

According to The Telegraph, United are the latest club to make an enquiry about the 28-year-old's availability after Liverpool held talks with the La Liga club.

The forward is reported to have a £21m release clause in his contract, but it remains unclear whether United or Liverpool are willing to meet Sevilla's asking price.

Bacca scored 28 goals in all competitions last season.
